124. Manifesting for Moms: The Hidden Grief Behind Getting What You Want

How to Break Free from Productivity Addiction & Start Manifesting as a Mom

Have you ever felt like you're stuck in a cycle of productivity, constantly doing everything for everyone else while your own dreams sit on the shelf? This week, I chat with Gabby Bosnic, toddler mom, yoga teacher, and founder of Serene Moms Online Wellness Studio, about the unexpected path to manifestation that no one talks about.

🌟 What you'll learn in this episode:

  • The surprising reason why high-achieving moms struggle to manifest their desires (it's not what you think!)
  • Why somatic yoga might be the missing piece in your self-care routine
  • The #1 journaling technique to start manifesting effectively TODAY
  • How to recognize when you're self-sabotaging through productivity addiction
  • The uncomfortable truth about letting go of what no longer serves you
  • Why feeling grief is actually a GOOD sign in your manifestation journey

Gabby shares her personal journey from rigid ballet dancer to somatic yoga teacher, including her struggles with Hashimoto's thyroiditis and the emotional barriers she faced while adjusting to motherhood. Her story perfectly illustrates why so many of us high-achieving women resist the very changes we claim to want!

The hardest part of your manifesting journal process? According to Gabby, it's the acceptance. "Most people don't want to admit what they really want because they're scared what others might think or what else it might mean for themselves."

About the Podcast

Beyond Awareness: Closing the Gap Between Knowing and Doing
Closing the Gap Between Knowing and Doing
Beyond Awareness (formerly Journal Entries) is for successful women in leadership and business who know exactly what they need to do but can't make themselves do it.

You know you need to prioritize yourself, delegate more, set boundaries, stop bringing work home. You've tried therapy, coaching, retreats. You know the solution - but you either can't follow through, or when you DO, it doesn't stick.

Host Samantha Hawley helps business owners and executives earning $100k+ excavate the root beliefs underneath the execution gap. Why do you keep not doing the thing? Why doesn't it feel better when you do? Using strategic journaling and emotional excavation, we go beyond awareness into why you're actually stuck in the pattern.

This isn't about more tactics or tips. This is about understanding why awareness isn't enough and what actually needs to shift for you to change.

You'll hear about: decision fatigue, why you can't prioritize yourself, nervous system regulation, being present with your kids, root cause of overwhelm, why boundaries don't stick, self-sabotage patterns, and how your internal state impacts everything.

Perfect for: Female CFOs, VPs, directors, executives, business owners, and women in leadership who are tired of knowing what's wrong but not being able to change it.
